Property Description for 40 West 72nd Street, 118

Lovely and spacious 11th floor 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home just a half block from the Strawberry Fields of Central Park at The Bancroft, a coveted Upper West Side coop. High, beamed ceilings and 3 exposures (north, south, and east) keeps this charming, prewar home awash in sunlight throughout the day. The living room is bright, cheerful and grand (so grand, in fact, that it's comfortably housing a magnificent baby grand piano with much room left to sit and watch TV or entertain guests). The renovated kitchen with brand new top-of-the-line appliances features a pass-thru with breakfast bar, plus a large adjacent dining area for entertaining guests. Both bedrooms are king-sized and have multiple windows with dual exposures. The primary bedroom has an en suite bathroom with shower stall. Both full bathrooms have been recently renovated. Other features include hardwood flooring throughout, in-unit Miele washer/dryer, 2 walk-in-closets and custom built-ins. Move right in - no updates needed.

The Bancroft is a full service, pet-friendly co-op with a 24 hour doorman, live-in super, bike room, extra storage available for a fee, and central laundry room. Conveniently located just half a block from Central Park. Trader Joe's, Fairway and Citarella are located close by, along with access to all major transportation (with the B/C trains right on the block and 2/3 trains one avenue over).

Lincoln Square | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Centered, in name and location, around the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, Lincoln Square’s history is heavily steeped in strong African American and Afro-Caribbean roots. Iconic jazz pianist, Thelonious Monk, is counted among its many former artistic and professional denizens.

The neighborhood is beloved for its amazing shopping, its distinguished art scene, and phenomenal restaurants--and don’t forget Central Park. From Lincoln Square, one is at the gateway to virtually everything New York City has to offer, either in your backyard or via excellent subway access.

With its beautiful pre-war architecture surrounded by some of NYC’s premier skyscrapers, Lincoln Square has become a safe, much sought after neighborhood. If you like living in the action, there are few places in the world that can rival Lincoln Square.
